II.1.4) Trumpas aprašymas:
Population growth, rising prosperity and changing consumption habits are also leading to an increasing volume of WEEE in Ghana. With increasing digitalization of the economy and decentralization of energy supply, new waste streams are added. Even though the average generation of electronic waste is relatively low at around 1.8 kg per inhabitant per year in Ghana (United Nations University 2020), this development affects a country whose collection and recycling structures for waste and recyclable materials are still insufficiently developed. WEEE is therefore largely collected and recycled in the informal sector, releasing substances harmful to the environment and health, such as lead, nickel, cadmium, arsenic or mercury. The associated health and environmental costs are externalized. Recyclers that comply with environmental and social standards and stand up against corruption are not competitive under these circumstances. This hinders the development of a recycling industry.
Besides the challenges, there are important potentials: the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation (MESTI) has begun developing an e-waste policy. With the Hazardous and Electronic Waste Control and Management Act (Act 917) and the Hazardous and Electronic Waste Control and Management Regulation (LI 2250), Ghana has created a legal framework for sustainably managing WEEE. In its National Medium-Term Development Policy Framework 2022-2025, the implementation of Act 917 and the establishment of a circular economy are mentioned as important elements for "reducing pollution". Eliminating or substituting substances that destroy the ozone layer forms part of the measures Ghana has set itself as part of its Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs).
MESTI is actively promoting the socially balanced management of WEEE. Since 2020, an environmental levy has been imposed on the imports of 60 product groups in the electrical and electronics sector, which was increased to 360 items in April 2022. These funds flow into a special account controlled by MESTI and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). It is not yet foreseeable how high these revenues will be and how the disbursements will be arranged. However, with the E-Waste Fund regulated in Act 917, an important prerequisite for sustainably financing the recycling of WEEE has been created. In anticipation of upcoming tenders from the fund, cooperation arrangements have been established between international enterprises and local recyclers, which expand the spectrum of possible recycling and upcycling options.
The third phase of the project is integrated into the core theme "climate and energy, just transition" of German development cooperation in Ghana. The core problem in the e-waste sector in Ghana is identified as a lack of vision on the part of all actors and thus also the lack of operationalization of sustainable management models of WEEE. The project outcome is thus: Models for improved management of WEEE along the value chain have been tested in cooperation between public and private actors at selected locations Within the urban population of Ghana, people involved in the management of WEEE or suffering from the consequences of improper recycling will be addressed in particular. Cooperation in the sector, the capacities of state actors and the private sector through technical, organizational and process advice are to be strengthened. Key outputs include improving the coordination of state actors on WEEE management models, strengthening private sector approaches to WEEE management and involving formerly informal actors in WEEE management structures, including women.
Implementing partners are MESTI, the Environmental protection agency (EPA), local government entities in Tamale and Kumasi, associations of collectors and recyclers of e-waste as well as NGOs and innovation / business promotion hubs.
The project has an overall budget of up to 6,700,000 EUR and a duration of 3 years (02/2023 to 01/2026).
